Seventh Straight Win Moves Mustangs Into First Place
When it rains it pours as the Montgomery County Community College Mustangs Men’s Soccer Team found out in Monday’s 6-3 victory over the Community College of Philadelphia Colonials.
The Colonials took strong hold of the game early on scoring in the 11th and 30th minute, racking up a two-goal lead over the Mustangs. But two minutes before half time the Mustangs struck back posting on the score-board with a breakaway goal from freshman Dave Griffith (North Penn). Ninety seconds later, the Colonials answered back to finish the half leading the game 3-1.
Then the rain came. In a soggy second-half downpour, the Mustangs found their momentum, flooding the Colonials’ net with five more goals to come back and win the game 6-3. Griffith gave the Mustangs a second half hat trick to round out his performance with a total of four goals. Also scoring for the Mustangs were sophomore Bryan Hare (Abington) and freshman Michael Wambold (Upper Moreland).
This game marks the Mustangs’ completion of one round of competition against their Eastern Pennsylvania Collegiate Conference (EPCC) opponents. The team now leads the EPCC with six wins and only one loss. Early in the season, the Mustangs fell 2-3 to rival Bucks County Community College Centurians.
